I wonder how much profit that would be for us? Here in Florida the stores selling tickets only make 5¢ on each $1 of ticket sold.

It'd have to be 50/50 or else we'd all be bitching - LOL

Just start a numbers site like that grandmother in Ohio did.

It uses the lottery numbers which she cannot control and she was making tens of thousands of dollars every month..... until she got caught.

Yes, Lottery brings in $.05 per dollar to the establishment, and big winnings do get a 'referral' bonus. In Florida there was a recent scandal about the scratch-n-win tickets.

But spokesperson Leslie Steele defended the practice of the Lottery Commission saying, "Everyone doesn't play scratch off games for the half a million dollars. Our players play for the entertainment and the good products and services we offer."

What a business to be in. I'd love it.

http://www.tradesports.com/ is my current favorite. If they only knew how to educate people, I think they would be making a LOT more money.
